Remove ftpd(8)

2025-09-29T21:53:34+00:00

This was previously deprecated and is slated for removal in 15.0.
Users who still need ftpd(8) can install the ftp/freebsd-ftpd port.

Retain the ftp(d) PAM services since other FTP daemons use them.

Update /etc/inetd.conf to point to /usr/local.

Add ftpd to ObsoleteFiles, but do not list configuration files since
users may want to preserve these to use with the freebsd-ftpd port.

There is still some language in the manual referring to ftpd(8)
which is relevant to the port, which has been retained but updated
to reference the port.

Remove $FreeBSD$: one-line bare tag

Remove /^\s*\$FreeBSD\$$\n/

Remove portsnap(8)

2023-04-23T01:12:37+00:00

Rather than having a tool in the FreeBSD base system for obtaining
the FreeBSD ports tree, users are encouraged to `pkg install git`
and then `git clone https://git.FreeBSD.org/ports.git /usr/ports`.

The portsnap servers will continue operating until FreeBSD 13 reaches
its End-of-Life, and portsnap is available from the ports tree as
ports-mgmt/portsnap.

rc.sendmail: remove unused script

2022-11-09T15:55:18+00:00

20 years ago the use of rc.sendmail script was dropped in favor
of /etc/rc.d/sendmail, it is time to retire the script entirely
now.

- Trim an unused and bogus Makefile for mount_smbfs.

- Reconnect with some minor modifications, in particular now selsocket()
internals are adapted to use sbintime units after recent'ish calloutng
switch.

Disconnect non-MPSAFE SMBFS from the build in preparation for dropping

2012-10-18T12:04:56+00:00

GIANT from VFS. In addition, disconnect also netsmb, which is a base
requirement for SMBFS.

In the while SMBFS regular users can use FUSE interface and smbnetfs
port to work with their SMBFS partitions.

Also, there are ongoing efforts by vendor to support in-kernel smbfs,
so there are good chances that it will get relinked once properly locked.

This is not targeted for MFC.

Finally nuke auth.conf, nine years after it was deprecated. The only

2012-06-12T17:02:53+00:00

thing it was still used for was to set the "global default" password
hash.  Since the stock auth.conf contained nothing but comments, the
global default was actually the first algorithm in crypt(3)'s list,
which happens to be DES; I take the fact that nobody noticed as proof
that it was not used outside of crypt(3).

The only other use in our tree was in the Kerberos support code in
in tinyware's passwd(1).  I removed that code in an earlier commit;
it would not have compiled anyway, as it only supported Kerberos IV.

The auth_getval() function is now a stub that always returns NULL,
which has the same effect as a functional auth_getval() with an
empty auth.conf.
